A Brighter Day Begins with His Word.

Part 9

← Weighed and Wanting: Addresses on the Ten Commandments · More by Moody, Dwight Lyman, 1837-1899 · All Christian Books

My friend, are you ready to be weighed against this commandment? Have you fulfilled, or are you willing to fulfil, all the requirements of this law? Put it into one of the scales, and step into the other. Is your heart set upon God alone? Have you no other God? Do you love Him above father or mother, the wife of your bosom, your children, home or land, wealth or pleasure?

If men were true to this commandment, obedience to the remaining nine would follow naturally. It is because they are unsound in this that they break the others.
